Mediocre product, IF you can install it. If not, Macmillan's support group is completely incapable of anything beyond generic troubleshooting.

Boring but OK

Star Trek: Starship Creator is somewhat limited since you really don't have control over everything. You have to make the ship out of pre-selected parts and you really cant customixe the ship. What about the money? I thought that in the Star Trek Universe money didn't exsist and it also limits you abilities. On the inside you can only add systems and you really cant build a cool interior and explore it! You cant even see anything but the hull. I also dont like the limited characters since you cant cross over officers such as putting James Kirk as Captain of Voyager etc... The missions do run on Real time and are very dull and boring since the computer does it all buy it's self. You can speed up the mission by hitting the Accelerate button but that only speeds it up a few seconeds. I would recommend Star Trek Creator: Add On since its a little better but not by much. Also if any of the Star Trek: Starship Creator producers are reading this they need to make a new game that you can design every inch and fill in every crewman, the missions should be made to be like the ones in Star Trek: Armada since you control everything. If your planning to make your own mission and make yourself an officer forget about it. It takes forever to read all of the instructions. If your a full-fledged Trekkie this game is OK but if you've seen about 15 episodes it'll bore you to sleep.

It's very slow, and takes a long time. If you don't know about Star Trek, it would be hard to design a starship.

From what I read in reviews, I thought it was bad, but the people aren't always right. It was pretty cool, designing the ship. The lowest point is that you have almost no control in the missions. I didn't see what people meant by seeing if you had the right crew. I just picked a bunch of my favorates and it turned out fine, everytime.

The coolest Mac program ever that was.

I love this game.
You can mix and match your favourite characters, add on all the starship systems you like, and send your starships on missions.
the part I didn't like was that all the starships followed a traditional design, and you can't create anything completely original. Other than that, this is a blast! (and a phaser blast at that)

It's O.K., If You Are a Star Trek Fan

This game can be satisfying for a Trek fan, but for an average computer game enthusiast, this game can put you to sleep. There are several complaints that are explained in the previous review that I completely agree with. I'm not saying that this game is horrible, but it is relatively limited. For Trek fans, this game may be appealing, but it's not a game that's going to draw you into a story line or something. it is more like a game you can full around with on your spar time, you won't be cough up in it for hours.

It creates nothing

I bought this product with the intent of being an interactive game. Instead, you just watch the screen for what seems an eternity seeing this little blip of a starship that you had just created reach its final destination point. There is no action at all. Very boring just watching the screen and doing nothing. After the first week, I was board after creating the starship you choose. And there very few missions to pick from. Thumbs down.

What A Piece Of Junk!

Unfortunately I have to agree with most of the other reviewers. Starship Creator is very lacking and restrictive in its abilities. There is little flexibility. Hopefully the Star Trek franchise will come out with something much better soon. Let's keep our fingers crossed! Where is Q when you need him?

Screen savers are better.

The title of this review says it all. You go through a lot of clicks and set up to maximize your budget to build a new design of Starship. The missions when you test your vehicle are much more boring than most screen savers. Many warn this is not an action game but battle chess has more interesting items to please the viewer and much more hands on control.
